Judas Priest

The Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame has revealed the nominees for next year’s ceremony.

First-time nominees include Judas Priest, Radiohead, Rage Against The Machine, Kate Bush, Dire Straits and the Moody Blues, while Bon Jovi, Depeche Mode, The Cars and the Zombies are all in the mix to join the Rock Hall’s class of 2018.

The top vote winners will be announced in December, with the induction ceremony taking place on April 14 at Cleveland’s Public Hall.

The Rock Hall only nominates bands after at least 25 years has passed since the release of their debut album or single.

Judas Priest have been eligible since 1999, with frontman Rob Halford saying last year: “If you’ve been able to make an indelible mark with what you do, to be recognised for that, I think, is a great honour. And if and when that day comes, I think that will be a real treat.”
